100 years ago Marcel Duchamp spent the summer at Herne Bay, It is believed that in this time marked the turning point in his work. So this August there is a festival in Herne Bay to celebrate Duchamp's time here. The festival is called "I am not dead" after a postcard he wrote to his friend that read "I am not dead. I am in Herne Bay". More information about the festival can be found here: http://www.iamnotdead.co.uk/
One of the events, "Human Tide" will take place as part of the festival as a mass participation digital happening on the beach.
The essence of the project is to combine long exposed photography with stunning cin-ematic time- lapse films as well as 3D sound records and GPS data via a collaborative experience.
It’s never been done before, and it's one surely not to be missed.
